Gotta Have It: Royal Blue Scalloped Short Suit from Simply Be
I have long looked for shorts suits and today, I think I found one! This suit, which intrigues me so, comes from Simply Be.
Firstly, I love the color royal blue. Asides from it being in the same color family as my birthstone (September 9th baby), I just am a fan of blue. It is calming, bold, chic, and sassy. Depending on the cut of the garment, it can be a few of them! I actually have a section in my closet that is like a blue hole, ranging from light denim through navy… it is that serious. So, imagine my surprise when I saw this get up from Simply Be!
NOW, immediately, I focused on these shorts. I loved the detail and how they look. Flat front and scalloped detail? YES. Being that it has been on the hotter side of 80 the past couple of days, playing in plus size shorts has been MY THING.
So take a look at THIS SUIT.
I mean, I could see myself in this, but I am on the fence. I need to know more about this jacket. I want to know if the sleeve comes down to full length? Being that it is summer, I would most def roll the sleeve, but a chick has got to have options here. Also, I am curious about this seam across the midsection of the jacket. Hrrmmm. I do not know.
Is it cute enough to make it a full suit?
QUITE possibly so!

What do you think? Is this something you can see yourself having a ball in? I have been dying for shorts suits and with this one, I am thinking that I am loving it. Leave a comment and let me know what you think!

My Simply Be catalogue arrived in the post this morning and when I saw this shorts suit I almost fell off my chair! I wouldn’t wear the shorts myself as I’ve not worn shorts since childhood, but I’m glad Simply Be were bold enough to make these. I’m sure there are many curvy girls they will look superb on.
I CANNOT wait to play in those! I am soooo curious about the fit!
…and I’m all over the jacket!
Heheheheh haaayyyyyyy
I love the shorts, but I’m not loving the jacket. It’s too shirt-like without enough structure, in my opinion. Maybe you could find a different blue jacket that would match/go.
